Columbia Enterprises is studying the replacement of some equipment
that originally cost $74,000. The equipment is expected to provide six
more years of service if $8,700 of major repairs are performed in two
years. Annual cash operating costs total $27,200. Columbia can sell the
equipment now for $36,000; the estimated residual value in six years is

New equipment is available that will reduce annual cash operating costs
to $21,000. The equipment costs $103,000, has a service life of six
years, and has an estimated residual value of $13,000. Company sales
will total $430,000 per year with either the existing or the new
equipment. Columbia has a minimum desired return of 12% and
depreciates all equipment by the straight-line method.

was raised to $3.10 per share in 20X3. On December 31, 20X3, Greene

98. Chapter 8 exercise 5:
5. Straightforwardnet present value and internal rate of return
The City of Bedford is studying a 600-acre site on Route 356 for a new
landfill. The startup cost has been calculated as follows:
Purchase cost: $450 per acre
Site preparation: $175,000

which shares a facility in Bath Township with other municipalities,
estimates that the new location will save $40,000 in annual operating
costs.
a. Should the landfill be acquired if Bedford desires an 8% return on
its investment? Use the net-present-value method to determine your
answer.

Final Paper
Focus of the Final Paper
You’ve just been hired onto ABC Company as the corporate controller.
ABC Company is a manufacturing firm that specializes in making cedar
roofing and siding shingles. The company currently has annual sales of
around $1.2 million, a 25% increase from the previous year. The
company has an aggressive growth target of reaching $3 million annual
sales within the next 3 years. The CEO has been trying to find additional
products that can leverage the current ABC employee skillset as well as
the manufacturing facilities.
102. As the controller of ABC Company, the CEO has come to you with a new
opportunity that he’s been working on. The CEO would like to use the
some of the shingle scrap materials to build cedar dollhouses. While this
new product line would add additional raw materials and be more time-
intensive to manufacture than the cedar shingles, this new product line
will be able to leverage ABC’s existing manufacturing facilities as well as
the current staff. Although this product line will require added expenses,
it will provide additional revenue and gross profit to help reach the
growth targets. The CEO is relying on you to help decide how this
project can be afforded Provide details about the estimated product
costs, what is needed to break even on the project, and what level of
return this product is expected to provide.
In order to help out the CEO, you need to prepare a six- to eight-page
report that will contain the following information (including exhibits,
but excluding your references and title page). Refer to the
accompanying Excel spreadsheet (available through your online course)
for some specific cost and profit information to complete the
calculations.
Final Paper Spreadsheet
I. An overall risk profile of the company based on current economic and
industry issues that it may be facing.
103. II. Current company cash flow
a. You need to complete a cash flow statement for the company using
the direct method.
b. Once you’ve completed the cash flow statement, answer the
following questions:
i. What does this statement of cash flow tell you about the sources and
uses of the company?
ii. Is there anything ABC Company can do to improve the cash flow?
iii. Can this project be financed with current cash flow from the
company? Why or why not?
iv. If the company needs additional financing beyond what ABC
Company can provide internally (either now or sometime throughout
the life of the project), how would you suggest the company obtain the
additional financing, equity or corporate debt, and why?
III. Product cost: ABC Company believes that it has an additional 5,000
machine hours available in the current facility before it would need to
expand. ABC Company uses machine hours to allocate the fixed factory
overhead, and units sold to allocate the fixed sales expenses. ABC
Company expects that it will take twice as long to produce the
expansion product as it currently takes to produce its existing product.
a. What is the product cost for the expansion product?
104. b. By adding this new expansion product, it helps to absorb the fixed
factory and sales expenses. How much cheaper does this expansion
make the existing product?
c. Assuming ABC Company wants a 40% gross margin for the new
product, what selling price should it set for the expansion product?
d. Assuming the same sales mix of these two products, what are the
contribution margins and break-even points by product?
IV. Potential investments to accelerate profit: ABC company has the
option to purchase additional equipment that will cost about $42,000,
and this new equipment will produce the following savings in factory
overhead costs over the next five years:
Year 1, $15,000
Year 2, $13,000
Year 3, $10,000
Year 4, $10,000
Year 5, $6,000
ABC Company uses the net-present-value method to analyze
investments and desires a minimum rate of return of 12% on the
equipment.
a. What is the net present value of the proposed investment ignore
income taxes and depreciation?
105. b. Assuming a 5-year straight-line depreciation, how will this impact the
factory’s fixed costs for each of the 5 years (and the implied product
costs)? What about cash flow?
c. Considering the cash flow impact of the equipment as well as the
time-value of money, would you recommend that ABC Company
purchases the equipment? Why or why not?
V. Conclusion:
a. What are the major risk factors that you see in this project?
b. As the controller and a management accountant, what is your
responsibility to this project?
c. What do you recommend the CEO do?
Writing the Final Paper
1. Must be six to eight double-spaced pages in length, and formatted
according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.
2. Must include a title page with the following:
a. Title of paper
b. Student’s name
c. Course name and number
106. d. Instructor’s name
